Getting ready for the Tenant Reform Act

What the New Tenant Reform Act Means for Our Tenants

Information update coming 1st May

 

The rental sector is about to see some of the biggest changes in many years with the introduction of the Tenant Reform Act. These reforms aim to create a fairer and more transparent private rented sector for both tenants and landlords.

 

As part of our commitment to keeping our tenants fully informed, we will be sending an information update to all tenants on 1st May explaining how these changes may affect you and what to expect moving forward.

 

What Is the Tenant Reform Act?

The Tenant Reform Act is designed to improve security, standards and transparency in the private rented sector. The reforms focus on strengthening tenant rights while ensuring landlords continue to provide well‑managed, safe homes.

 

Some of the key proposals include:

 

The removal of Section 21 “no fault” evictions

Stronger protections against unfair rent increases

The introduction of a Private Rented Sector Ombudsman

A national landlord register

New rights for tenants to request permission for pets

Improved standards and enforcement against poor housing conditions

What We Will Be Sending You on 1st May

All tenants will receive an information pack outlining:

 

A clear summary of the new reforms

How the changes may affect your tenancy

Your rights as a tenant

Guidance on communication and support

Our Commitment to Our Tenants

The private rental sector continues to evolve, and we are committed to ensuring all our tenants are kept informed and supported during these changes.

 

If you have any questions once you receive the information on 1st May, please do not hesitate to contact our team.
